And with the help of JBL's purchase of Soundcraft, Tony started his first Authorized Service Center, TLM Electronics, Inc. in Pleasantville, NY. But when the snow and cold finally got the better of them, the Marra family packed up and headed to Las Vegas and TLM, a New York corporation became TRD, a Nevada corporation. Continuing his long relationships with British manufactures' such as Soundcraft, Focusrite, and Drawmer, Tony continues to push Thermal Relief Design, Inc. into the new millennium.
